Before and after

Church this morning where the children behaved very well.
The oldest one made some scrambled eggs for lunch and then they played and we intervened in disputes as necessary (and sent one to thier room for a while for unacceptable behaviour).
Roast chicken dinner and everyone cleaned their plates and made no fuss and after I decided some clearing of the playroom was in  order. It was slow and noisy but got donw to an reasonable level.
Bedtime was a bit of a strain - 3 tired children can cause chaos!
